Actually, the Java article is of a fairly lousy quality relative to Java's notability. It could be a fine piece. Perhaps editors have been reluctant to lengthen it as most information can be found in more detailed subject, however, I don't believe that readers should have to ferret around on other linked pages unless the "summary" page is too long. Some of those sections are just list of links, and others not much more. FOr example, why not discuss the Javanese and the Sundanese, rather than just link to them. Discuss, how Islam tends to be more orthodox in Sunda whereas in "Jawa" it is fused with more superstitious beliefs. --Merbabu 14:06, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

New map of Town of Victoria Park
G'day Gnangarra. Check out my new map of Vic Park's location, see what you think. I've done one for each inner suburb, outer 'burbs are on the way. Gordon | Talk, 31 October 2006 @13:05 UTC

Re:GSUSA
I did not know what to do with that image to be honest with you, thanks for pointing it out. Not the worlds greatest speller either. Darthgriz98 17:52, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

- Any other suggestions for GSUSA? I fixed the problems you came up with, expecialy the one with 3.7 million, turns out that 3.3 from the article before it was from the 1990's but 3.7 was from 2005, so I found a citation from GSUSA stating that so there would be no more confusion. You were a great help in the initial FAC stage, thank you for commenting. Darthgriz98 14:23, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

The Wedge
Sorry to bother you, but I and some of the other fellow 'wikimates' believe you are being bias against the show with very ill-natured remarks about the show. This is an encyclopaedia not a message board. Please refrain from your opinions on further notice. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shaggy9872004 (talk • contribs)
- My reply as posted to shaggy's talk page Gnangarra
- Please read the edit history of this article in less then 2hours the article was attacked by a vandal swapping across ip addresses this vandal made 15 individual attacks to this article alone during this period. Adding "is a pitiful new " to the opening sentence and altering genre from "sketch comedy" to "poor television" and some other such edits. All I did was revert those attacks, I didn't add or alter any existing information prior to those attacks. Again this morning "is a pitiful new" had been added from another annon IP. If you wish me to ignore further such vandalism to this article I'll quite happily agree, but please before you comment on a users talk page check what was occuring in the edit history and ensure you have your facts right.

Confusion over Nyungar names
Hi Gnangara. You wrote "Hi John, I noticed you spent a lot of time with this article. We've run into a problem with the Mount Eliza, Western Australia and the Kings Park, Western Australia articles both of these have differing Names to each other ad to the Whadjuk article. Would know of a source that we can quote to clear this up as our sources all differ."
My sources are from the publication of Daisy Bates' maerials organised through Hesperion Press, and through long discussions with Tim McCabe, who speaks the Nyungar language fluently (Albeit with a Njakinjaki dialect). Mooro Kata means the hill of Mooro which was the name given to the site of the area on which government house now stands. Kaarta, is suspect also means Hill, (English orthographies for Nyungar differ wdely) not as the translation suggests about a good meeting place. Aboriginal names of Mount Eliza differ somewhat from European naming usage. Europeans have one name for things, that are fixed in maps. Aboriginal naming conventions were much more flexible. Thus for instance the western most portion of the rise of Mount Eliza, known by the name Karakatta (Spider Hill) - on which the HHouse of Parliament now stands was also caled Mooro Katta as well. Mount Eliza would have been known as Katta (simply Hill), Garrup, may come from the Nyungar Karl arp (The place of the hearth (Karl = Fire, hearth, arp/up = place), so a meeting place on the hill would ave been Katta-Karl-up. Europeans, not speaking the language, and as the Aboriginal K and G was the same phoneme, simply transcribed what they thought they heard, not speaking the language fluently. Hope this helps John D. Croft 07:48, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
- Going on John's notes above, which appear to support my incoherent ramblings in our discussion in Talk:Mount_Eliza,_Western_Australia, I see no reason why we couldn't document two Noongar names, using John's work here as the basis? You will recall I couldn't work out "gar", but John makes it clear that it may well equate with "karl", thus it may well be that Mooro Katta and Kaarta gar-up are the same thing and equally valid. Alas, Goonininup is still \\\ STOP PRESS! \\\ AlltheWeb reveals that Goonininup is the Noongar name for the site of the Old Swan Brewery! And that makes sense, 'cos it's a different place! So we can strike that one from Mt Eliza. Gordon | Talk, 15:33, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
Sorry
Sorry about that. I find it very hard to tell if you reverted it or made that biasness. A million apologies. shaggy9872004

Trams, smart
I'm back with a palindrome. Hello again gnangarra. It was my request for mention of trams and I meant historically, so perhaps it should go in the history article. Good on you for all the fine contributions. Fred.e 19:29, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Australian Kelpie GA nomination
G'day Gnangarra. The Australian Kelpie article has been nominated for GA, and a reviewer has suggested that the prose needs tidying up -- "A quick third party review will solve this." I thought of you :> Actually, some re-organisation of the last few sections could be in order as well, but I'm getting too close to it and can't make decisions :[ Please? Gordon | Talk, 15:11, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
- I've obtained permission to print the "Red Cloud" info from Noonbarra Stud, & have put it in the "History" section. I'm not happy with the results of my citing in that section though, I think it may be better (readability) to go for something less intrusive, like embedded links, for the entire article.

List of closed Perth railway stations
Reviewing this old chestnut - and its dreamworld brother of country ones (gasp) I am thinking that the red link armour each location carries might be too heavy - what would you sayto stripping the red links and only creating arts when they arise - it wouldnt look like a parallel of the reality?

I created a stub for him... there's two sites linked there if you or someone else wants to fill it out (it was a red link in Indigenous Australians and on looking him up he seemed more than notable enough to have his own page).

Wesley College
Stop degrading our school. You keep trying to make it sound like we are not as good as the other PSA schools. Maybe you went to another PSA school so thats why you keep mucking up our school page. Words like prestigious isnt POV, its the views of the society and its been accepted that way. So keep it that way. And our fees were correct okay.. its not like we made it up. and you keep ruining all the pictures. Actually visit our school and you'll realise that we arent actually lying and making it all up.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 124.168.101.95 (talk • contribs) .

Image vandal
Thanks for your barnstar about Pharaoh and Cleopatra. Sadly, there is no a user who is trying to undo my many efforts, removing all the images from the article. Please watch the article and revert if you can. The user in question has a history of removing images from articles under the guise that fair use law does not allow them to be there (which isn't true). -Husnock 14:40, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Pharaoh and Cleopatra

In Answer to your Question
I shall place this on both your user page and this disucssion. I deeply regret losing my temper and did not mean any offence In what I wrote on the Aquinas College, Perth Talk page, I simply wished to get a point across.
Secondly in answer to your question, No my edits are in no way related to school work. I am simply trying to improve and maintain both the Article for Aquinas College, Perth and Mount Henry Peninsula. I am also planning on creating and maintaining some articles on relations between Australia and Indonesia, I may also edit some other articles but that is where my goals lie at the present time.

The Wedge (TV show)
This is a message about J Di and your edits to 'The Wedge (TV show)'. This proposal of addin '...and criticism' is ridiculous because we've had peace on the page until that came along so I'd like to be friends with you guys but it's just not very fair on me to have to discuss everything I do on every article I edit. Especially my mate, J Di who is like stalking me, it's very inconsiderate and annoying. I hope you take this proposal. THanks! Shaggy9872004 22:28, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Conoms
It's a shame this discussion is fragmented all over the place. A couple of points:
- The very idea of opposing an RfA on grounds of the number of co-nominators! It beggars belief.
- I think that no competent bureaucrat would take into account an oppose based on opposition to the number of co-nominations.
- All the same, are you sure you wouldn't prefer not to give people an excuse to oppose? This is about Gnangarra, not his nominators, and I'm sure none or your prospective co-nominators will mind withdrawing. I wouldn't want to put you in the position of selecting a nominator, but just say the word and we will be work out a single nominator between us (personally I would go for Sarah - a very highly respected admin with a much higher profile than the rest of us). Once I've got your response on this, we'll make it happen.
Hesperian 02:01, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
- I've read that thread and considered carefully what they are saying. If thats their reason to oppose a nomination then thats the choices they make, most people dont even say why anyway. I appreciated what everybody has said and at the end of the day I'll still be here contributing to wikipedia.
- Personally I would like to see them all included as they are, I'll respect anyones decision not to have their conom on the page.
- BTW I'm off to my nephews 1st birthday party and I wont be back around until tonight, can you start the process and I'll add my incoherant ramblings tonight. Gnangarra 02:41, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

- Just thought I'd let you know that technically you haven't accepted the nomination. I'm guessing since you answered the questions and replied to the neutral vote you have accepted, but you haven't actually signed your name where it asks you to "indicate acceptance of this nomination".

New WA article draft
Greetings, Dropped in to advise you, if interested, of this draft at my user subpage. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Fred.e/George_Temple_Poole.
- Ta. Page is called C. Y. O'Connor which is making me nervous about hyphen Temple-Poole. Will test and research. Removed all colony reference after reading that article. Made him british which may be controversial. Will also advise you of name of paper where cartoon appeared, I saw it reprinted in hard copy - probably Oldham Biog.- does that affect copyright? Going to LISWA site now. Sorry I forgot to sign yesterday Thanks for help and offers Fred.e 18:06, 22 November 2006 (UTC) Fred.e 18:06, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Sigh
OK - point taken - java argument got recycled twice on this issue as well - bunch of..... nice editors ! SatuSuro 03:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

- Issue is one which reccurs - java, perth etc. I think this current user should cotton on thats all been through before. There is an argument (yet to find policy) that archiving actually invites the recycling of the same thing every time - I really think a new policy should be created to create a moratorium on redirect/disambig to articles that have had votes from more than 10 editors say - for at least 8 or 9 month time - simply to reduce the unnecesary bringing out of peoples limited geographical knowledge for show so regularly!

RE:Portal:Military of Australia/Selected anniversaries/April
Hi thats a good point I did notice it a while back but never got around to fixing it. It would make navigation much more easier. It would take a while to make the change but its a good idea, if only I did it when there were less days done. Is there a way to change them all at once or would i have to do them all one at a time. Hossen27 13:31, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- The move will effect the portal but i will just have to make a small change to the wiki markup nothing major. Just previewed the change on the portal its easy to do. If your going to change some yourself I would suggest September, October, early November and January, these will not effect the portal. I'll start changing them later today or tomorrow. Thanks for helping. Hossen27 00:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for your work so far on this, you've been a big help. Hossen27 10:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Reptiles of Australia
Hello,
I wanted this as featured article, as it would be in the same vein as Amphibians of Australia. It is currently just a "stub" of sorts that I created with my limited resources. I made the list pretty, and created a blurb with the few books I have. The great diversity, and interest, in Australian reptiles would mean that there is plenty of information out there. It is just a matter of finding this information, and creating an article for it. Thanks. --liquidGhoul 14:26, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- That's a good point. Just that we are both on at the same time. I have added a notice to WP:AWNB, so hopefully more people will add themselves soon, and begin to participate. Good work with all tonght's contribs, and good luck (don't need it anymore) with the RFA. --liquidGhoul 14:56, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
